I have just completed another HDYF article. This one was done a little quickly so it could likely really use some eyes on it to make sure the quality is good. https://fedoramagazine.org/?p=14553&preview=1&_ppp=2c622107ab Thanks, Charles

[magazine] Idea: Monthly editorial inspiration email
by Michael Downey 13 Sep '16

13 Sep '16

Hi all, I was chatting with someone about articles on opensource.com earlier today, and he reminded me that that blog's team sends out a monthly email to a listserv of existing authors, that contains some ideas for potential blogs. Seems to me that this might be useful for the Magazine's past authors to (a) inspire them to keep writing, and (b) give them an idea of what would create good content. What do others think? There may be some authors for that blog reading this, so feel free to share your reaction to the idea "in the real world". Cheers, Michael

[magazine] Pitch article fudcon Phnom Penh
by S.Kemter 12 Sep '16

12 Sep '16

Hi, I made another pitch. https://fedoramagazine.org/?p=14442&preview_id=14442 @Paul, well I asked the organizers for the highlights they have the answer was ¨Yes tell me¨ :D I think they will know it barcampstylish last moment just a week before. For our side we would have to wait until call ends and we have selected the papers, in 4 weeks to get speakers in. Think thats the better way, if somebody might get interested in the region, he can book his travel that way. I am unhappy with the feature pic, maybe Ryan comes up with something better good evening then gnokii -- make me rich, buy my Inkscape book http://is.gd/yq5OD0 ;)

Since you're looking at getting more involved with the Magazine, I'm moving this discussion over to the Fedora Magazine mailing list, magazine(a)lists.fedoraproject.org, instead of the general Marketing list. :) Welcome aboard! By the sounds of it, there's a large handful of ideas and topics you could write about for the Magazine, both on the development and more graphical side! The way it works now, you should have access to add draft posts to the Magazine just by signing in with your FAS account. If this is not the case, please let us know! You can try signing in by navigating to the following page: https://fedoramagazine.org/wp-admin/ One potential idea, it would be awesome to see some sort of post on "top 5 tips for open source photographers" or something along those lines! We did run a very small pointer post once to someone else's blog… https://fedoramagazine.org/open-source-photography-workflow-tips/ …but it would be cool to see some top recommended tips for Fedora users specifically with regards to open source photography. I'm sure you have some ideas of your own too! Feel free to get started by writing a pitch for your article. If you have any questions, feel free to ask us here on the Magazine list and we'll be happy to help! Again, welcome aboard! :) -- Cheers, Justin W. Flory jflory7(a)gmail.com

Team, Here is a pitch of an article: https://fedoramagazine.org/?p=14465&preview_id=14465 As I commented before, this is kind of a translation of a article in spanish in the blog ChicaGeek <http://www.chicageek.com/como-usar-tu-navegador-web-de-forma-mas-eficiente/> .
